Browns: 3 trade options from all NFL teams under .500
By Chad Porto
Washington Football Team
LB Jon Bostic
He might be a lateral move for the Browns. He’s arguably as good if not slightly better than what the Browns already have at linebacker. He’s on an affordable deal but so are all the Browns’ linebackers. He’s developed a reputation as a journeyman player, and now one as a dirty player after his hit on Andy Dalton. Had to have three from each team, though. Even if that team is as depleted as Washington.
CB Ronald Darby
Honestly, this list was compiled when Landon Collins wasn’t looking at a year+ on the shelf with an Achilles injury, so Ronald Darby is a late addition to the list. Darby’s a corner. The Browns need corners. He’s a starter, that right there makes him better than Terrance Mitchell (Pretty sure Air Bud is better than Mitchell, and cheaper). So yeah lacking enthusiasm, Darby makes the list.
I feel so bad for the fans of Washington.
DE/OLB Ryan Kerrigan
He’s not even starting anymore, but he’s got the skills still to compete. He’s playing half of the snaps the defense plays on his best days and Jack Del Rio thinks it’s unrealistic to play him that much. That’s not going to be something Ryan Kerrigan wants to hear. Kerrigan can still play, and can still get after the quarterback. The Browns need help and with Porter Gustin on the team, they can manage Kerrigan’s workload.
